Went to this game, Phillie fans were still seemingly shellshocked from the loss the night before.

I'd say it was about 50-50 Mets-Phillies fans in Philly's ballpark. Jimmy Rollins, I believe, hit a home run, and it was THROWN BACK ON THE FIELD. I've never seen that before or since, a player getting a homer thrown back on the field in his own ballpark.

Long rain delay thinned out the crowd, and the Mets fans took over the park. Great night in Philly.

Now it's your turn! Tell us what you remember of this game:

Example OneThe Mets suck! They need to trade Smith and get somebody like
Jones.
This comment is off-topic and will be removed. It has nothing to do with
any specific game. But here's an acceptable alternative:

Example TwoThe Mets suck! Smith made three errors in this game, and hit into a
double play, and the Mets blew a 5-0 lead. They need to get rid of Smith
and get somebody like Jones.
See the difference? Here you're getting the same point across, but it's in
the proper context. We wouldn't consider this message to be off-topic, and
we would let it remain.

We do appreciate anybody who takes the time to share their thoughts on our
site, and we hate to remove anybody's postings. But if we didn't take
steps to ensure that only on-topic messages were retained, The Ultimate
Mets Database would become a confusing jumble of unrelated comments,
and would thus be less enjoyable to visitors like you.
